Summary/Abstract: The development of the Polish bibliological biography is best evidenced by the number of biographical directories and collective biographies of book people. In the analysis of publications from the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, the emphasis was placed on the involvement of cultural and scientific institutions in the creation of those publications. In the article, the author presents the contributions of particular institutions to the development of bibliological biographies. In particular, the following institutions are involved in this process: the Słownik pracowników książki polskiej Laboratory by the Chair of Library and Information Science at the University of Lodz; the Old Polish Bibliography Laboratory at the Institute of Literary Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences; Polish Librarians’ Association; Wroclaw Librarians’ Corporation; Kujawy and Pomerania Cultural Society; Lublin Society of Book Lovers; and numerous libraries. The aforementioned institutions were presented against the background of biographical directories which they helped create.
